Nowadays, computer games are widely being used as part of entertainment. Indigenous games are a thing of the past. Year after year, innovations are being made for every technology that existed. One of the very popular games in the Philippines is the Sungka. Sungka is played with a boat-shape board with fourteen holes in two rows and a large hole at each end.

This game is widely distributed through Asia and Africa where Arab influences have penetrated. In Ceylon it is called chanca, and at Johore, Straits Settlements, ckongkak. The arrangement of the board in both cases is the same as in the Philippine game. (Source: Culin, S.
